The author, Michael Wolff, hes standing by, he will join us. We want to welcome our viewers here in the united states and around The World. Im Wolf Blitzer, and youre in the situation room. We begin our Coverage Tonight with the latest on the surging coronavirus pandemic. Cnns Erica Hill is joining us from New York right now. Erica, update our viewers. So we just learned from l. A. County where cases, by the way, are up 500 over the last month that all of the covid patients admitted now Are Unvaccinated. Here in New York city, we learned today that from january to june, nearly all of the new cases, hospitalizations, and deaths were also among people in the city who were unvaccinated. All of those headlines, all of those numbers just underscoring the boost in efforts to try to get more shots in arms. The White House calling in Pop Star Olivia rodrigo in an effort to boost vaccinations, especially among teens and young adults, as misinformation and politics threaten to derail vaccine progress. Its pretty clear who theyre listening to, and its not the scientists. Reporter after sharing information on Tennessees Vaccine Policy for minors, one of the states medical directors was fired this week. Now, according to documents obtained by cnn, the state has ordered a halt to all Vaccine Outreach for kids. It is any kind of outreach around the importance of vaccines for children, around the importance of Covid19 Vaccine for adolescents, especially has been halted, even going so far as to cancel events that are scheduled well into the fall for Flu Vaccination within schools. Reporter The American Academy Of Pediatrics calling her firing the most recently example of politicizing Public Health expertise. What well see, and the ones who will also pay the price other than the unvaccinated adolescents are the little kids who depend on the adults and adolescents to get vaccinated in order to slow or halt transmission. Reporter in mississippi, which has one of the lowest Vaccination Rates in the country, seven children are in the icu with covid, two are on ventilators. Were too often falling back on to Human Behavior thinking that people will do whats in the best interest of the most, but that hasnt proven to be true so far. Reporter hospitalizations, skyrocketing in several states with one common thread. The people who are being hospitalized are those who Are Unvaccinated and we think that thats come with a lot of the unmasking. Reporter meantime, the more contagious Delta Variant accounts for 60 of new infections in the u. S. Nationwide, all but three states seeing a jump in new cases over the past week. Delta is here, delta is dangerous, and delta is killing people. This should scare the hell out of you. Wr. Reporter wolff, one more update on whats happening in tennessee, they have in Fact Halt Ld notifications for vaccines. It doesnt mean vaccinations have stopped but the notifications have. What does that mean . Kids who were ready for a second covid19 dose, and hpv vaccine, even Kindergarten Vaccination surveys, those have been halted while they reevaluate the notification process. The Department Spokeswoman saying its because vaccines are a quote polarized issue. Just to give you a sense, since 1987 in the state, kids 14 to 17 dont need parental permission to seek medical attention. That includes vaccinations. As for how many unaccompanied minors who got the vaccine, were told its eight. Very disturbing information indeed. Thank you very much. Lets go to our chief White House continue kaitlan collins, the misinformation about covid, the lies about the vaccine, this is a growing concern for White House. What are they planning to do about it . Theyre preparing to push back more aggressively, wolff, they are concerned that this is going to be or it is a Driving Force, and why youre seeing people not get vaccinated and theyre still devising ways in which they are going to push back on this. They say they will push back more forcefully. That could involve President Biden himself getting involved in all of this, really what they want to do and the main goal of this is not actually doing anything, but its calling it out, and noting this is a Driving Force behind a lot of people having Misinformation And N misconceptions about whats behind the vaccines, the science behind them and how they were apro approved, its going to begin tomorrow with the surgeon general making a rare appearance in the Briefing Room where hes going to talk about a government created report that does deal in part with the misinformation they believe is surrounding the vaccine. Theres a report that will be coming out that, again, our surgeon general, Vivek Murthy will be coming to the Briefing Room tomorrow to talk about, and certainly the push back against disinformation, information that is, you know, literally a matter of Life And Death is something that is going to be a continued focus of this administration. Reporter and wolff, its not just some conservative outlets or conservative channels or some republicans who have been pushing lies about the vaccine because they point to people like the former Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell who has been nonstop almost in encouraging people to get vaccinated and one big concern inside the administration is the role that Social Media Platforms is playing in all of this, and so that was part of the question there, too, earlier today, we know that the chief of Staff Ron Klain has gone directly to Mark Zuckerberg of facebook that saying a lot of times when they talk to people about where they see the misinformation about vaccines, people tell them facebook. Stand by, were going to get back to you. I know you have more news developing over at the White House as well. In the meantime, i want to get analysis of dr. Paul, thank you so much for joining us. How important is it that the White House be actively engaged in this fight against Coronavirus Misinformation right now . I think very important. I mean, you would have thought that the hard part about getting people protected from this virus would have been constructing the virus, which is done in eleven months or mass producing the vaccine, or mass administering the vaccine. Its not. The hardest part is getting people to take the vaccine. The White House has taken the lead in trying to solve the major problems. One was access, which i think their Doortodoor Idea is a great one, the second is education, find out who the influencers are in these communities, and educate them about how to educate those communities, and then the sort of Nudge Principle of just, you know, the free beer or the lottery as a way of sort of finally getting people to do it. But then the question is going to come down to, what percentage of the people who are choosing not to get a vaccine are simply science denialists, and it doesnt matter what you tell them, how well you educate them. They arent going to get the vaccine, and they provide a rich and fertile ground for the virus, cause people to suffer, be hospitalized, and die, and in addition continue to create these variants, and what do you do then, i think the answer to that question is you have mandatory vaccines. At least at the local level. I think thats going to in The End have to happen. I suspect you might be right. As this Delta Variant dr. Offet takes hold across the country, were hearing from physicians that the patients now hospitalized with the virus are younger, and they are sicker. What warnings should they be sending . Right, so i think, you know, you have the greater percentage of people now who are being hospitalized are those less than 50. Theyre in some ways less likely to be vaccinated than the older group. This is a more contagious virus, therefore, you know, its more likely to spread and cause disease, including serious disease. The good news here, though, is that if you look at the Delta Variant, it makes up about 50 of scirculating, strains, 99. 2 of people hospitalized or killed by the virus Are Unvaccinated. That is to say the vaccine prevents against severe critical disease caused by the delta vav variant. Get vaccinated. Its a Life And Death issue as i keep on saying. Thank you so much for joining us. Thank you. Just ahead, President Biden pressing lawmakers as senate democrats reach a deal on a 3 1 2 Trillion Dollars spending plan. Were going to talk about with Senator Bernie sanders, hes standing by. Well discuss with him when we come back jt.

President Biden Up On Capitol Hill Today telling democratic senators you just heard him say it, were going to get this done. After lawmakers announced a deal on a 3 1 2 Trillion Dollars spending package. Lets go back to our chief white House Correspondent kaitlan collins, shes joining us along with cnn congressional correspondent Ryan Nobles. You have new details emerging right now about whats actually in this new Budget Package that senate democrats have agreed on. What are you learning . Yeah, thats right. And theres a lot of optimism among democrats about this 3. 5 trillion package, but theres a long way to go before it ends up on President Bidens desk, in part because we dont know specifically whats going to be in it. So far these Budget Negotiators just releasing Top Line Concepts that they want to include, which are key priorities for many democrats, among them, some major investments in fighting climate change, also investments in things like yuniversal prek paid family and medical lever, as well as child care, investment in housing, small business support, and american manufacturing, and theres also going to be significant changes to the tax code. We dont know the specifics behind this either, and based on what were hearing democrats say, this means tax increases on the wealthiest americans and corporations, thats been a key priority, especially for these progressive members of both the House And Senate who have been pushing for this big panckage. 3. 5 million is a lot of money. Progressives wanted to spend as much as 6 trillion. They have been open to Finding Out more about this package. The Big Question is how much is going to be spent in each one of the areas. They seem to be receptive of the package in the early offering. Kaitlan, the president returned to Capitol Hill to make the sell, to rally support among democrats. What are you hearing . How did it go . Publicly he said its good to be home. He spent three decades on Capitol Hill as a senator. We know from our reporting behind closed doors, he was urging the democratic party to stay united on this process. We know they are trying to move quickly. They would like to get this done by august. That is going to be a significant haul for the Democrat Lawmakers on Capitol Hill and for the White House being involved in that, and so that was his main Message Today was trying to make sure that they are unified on this because we know when it comes to the 3. 5 trillion agreement, there are progressive members of the democratic caucus that wanted it to be higher, and moderates who wanted it to be a lot lower, and they cannot afford to miss a single vote on this, as they are also trying to subsequently get the bipartisan Infrastructure Deal passed, the agreement, one that he was trying to sell to a group of the nations mayors, and governors at the White House, and he does feel it needs to be a two Track Process . Kaitlan collins at the White House, Ryan Nobles on Capitol Hill. Thank you very much. Lets get more on whats going on. The independent Senator Bernie sanders of vermont is joining us, the chairman of the senate budget committee. Senator, thank you so much for joining us, as you just heard, and as you would know a lot better than i do, this is, what, some 2 1 2 trillion dollars less than you and many of your fellow progressives initially wanted. What do you say to those fellow progressives who feel that maybe you gave in too easily right now . Well, what i would say, wol, number one, we are in fact looking at the most consequential piece of legislation for Working Families since the great depression, so this is a very big, big deal, which is going to transform the lives of many millions of americans. Second of all what i would simply say is i wish, you know, that the rest of the senate held my political views, but they dont. As i think ryan mentioned, kaitlan mentioned, there are 50 of us in the senate, some more conservatives than others, and we have to reach an agreement, but essentially what the framework of this bill is about is number one, telling the wealthiest people in the largest corporations, many of whom have avoided paying their fair share of taxes, those days are over. Theyre going to start paying their fair share of taxes. Second. Go ahead, make your second point. Second of all, Working Families in this country while the rich are getting much richer, Working Families are struggling. They cant afford Health Care, they cant afford child care, they cant afford to send their kids to college. They cant afford home Health Care for their parents, and we are going through it in a very significant Way Address many of these crises that Working Families are facing, and thirdly, finally, the united states will lead The World in dealing with enormous threat to our country and the planet in terms of climate change, and when we do all of these things, were going to create many many millions of good paying jobs which we desperately need. As you know, your democratic colleagues, senator Joe Manchin of west virginia, hes a pivotal vote in all of this. Its a 50 50 senate. Hes very disturbed by provisions in the deal, he believes that would eliminate fossil fuels, thats a point youre making. Are those provisions on the table if it means getting Man Chin to support the whole package. Let me tell you, when youre dealing with a bill as big as this, and with 50 senators from states all over the country, a lot of people are disturbing about a lot of things. Theres a lot of work that has to be done. But my own view is climate change, i mean, were seeing whats going on in the West Coast of this country right thousand. And everything being equal, if we dont get our act together and transform our energy system, what youre seeing on the West Coast, what youre seeing flooding in detroit, in New York, its only going to get worse. So we have to become very aggressive about combatting climate change, obviously we have to work with all 50 democratic senators to pass this bill. Hovering over all of this right now is the fear of inflation, as you well know, the federal Reserve Chairman addressed deep concerns about high inflation readings going on right now, and inflation is a really serious problem, not so much for the rich, but for the middle class and the poor. Gasoline costs 4 a gallon or 5 a gallon. Rich people dont care but middle class people do care. How concerned are you right now, senator, about inflation . Well, i am concerned about inflation among many other things. As i think you know, this bill, this 3 1 2 trillion, and then theres another 600 bill in a so called bipartisan Infrastructure Bill will pay for itself. It will be paid for in a variety of ways, but significantly by higher taxes on the wealthy and large corporations, so that should not add to the inflation concerns. Because the Inflation Problem Pote potentially a huge problem, you and i remember the Jimmy Carter administration, he lost his bid for reelection as president of the united states in part because of the iran Hostage Crisis but also because inflation, high Interest Rates were really devastating the u. S. At that time. Inflation is a real concern but we should also be concerned about is that real inflation accounted for wages for many many workers in this country. It has not gone up for almost 50 years. People are paying much more than they can afford for child care, college, Health Care, and this legislation begins to address those concerns. All right, senator, thank you very much, we obviously will continue this conversation with you. A very important Programming Note to our viewers.

Michael wolff has written three books about trump. His new book is entitled landslide, the final days of the Trump Presidency, there you see the cover. Michael thank you so much for joining us. I want to read your description of the former president leading up to january 6th. You write this. How far had he trump left reality and to what extent had the Government Eitself become a charade to support the delusion, not the delusion would ever become reality, but the checks and balances of government would not discourage it either. The president would just simply float, disconnected, out there. Give us some insight into how you came up with that. You know, what really happened here after november 3rd, after Election Day by saturday, november 7th, almost everybody, not almost, literally everybody around the president , people in the White House, people in the campaign, people in his own family had come to the conclusion that, number, one, Donald Trump had lost this election. Number two, whatever Donald Trump did would not change that outcome. So effectively, it was just Donald Trump, Donald Trump alone who had this idea that the election was stolen and that he could change it. Now, he was he came to be aided by rudy giuliani, which is alarming in its own way, but essentially the entire government, his entire White House, the administration, his lawyers, everybody deserted him. Speaking of giuliani, hes clearly a central character in your new book. Heres what you write about his infamous Press Conference at the four seasons total landscaping site. You write this. This was in every sense a rudy affair, chaotic, disorganized, scattered in result and purpose, and not unlikely conceived and executed with its key actor a few sheets to the wind, thats a pretty dramatic statement. The man you describe as chaotic, disorganized and you even say drunk. He was americas mayor at one point. He saw the country through 9 11, so what happened here . I mean, i think at one point is the key phrase. Rudy has changed. Life didnt work out for rudy. It was what he imagined happening didnt happen. As a matter of fact, he imagined Donald Trump would be his Side Kick and he would be the president. That didnt happen. Rudy, never the less, was and is desperate to be at the center of attention. Of course, as the years went on, he drank more and more, he, you know, ballooned up to almost 300 pounds. He was someone actually Donald Trump went around saying rudy drinks too much, falls asleep all the time. Cant focus on anything and is always, whatever he does, he messes it up. Nevertheless, and this is sort of the key characteristic of Donald Trump is that if you say what he wants to hear, then you are his man. You are in rudys case, his personal lawyer because rudy was the only one saying what Donald Trump wanted to hear. I was really impressed, michael that you managed to interview the former president not once, but twice, for this new book, even though as a lot of us remember, he tried to sue you to stop publication of his last book. How did those conversations with trump come about, and how did they go. Extraordinary, i am as dumbfounded as anybody about this. The way it came about is i had been speaking to people around the president , and i mean, many a number of these people i have been speaking to for four years about the president , but someone told him or i suppose probably warned him that i was going to write another book, and the president s response was as follows, oh, that guy gets ratings, lets see him. So i was immediately invited to come down to maralago to interview the president , to have dinner with the president. That was a pretty impressive, that you managed to do that. Let me read something from the book that the former president told you about supreme Court Justice Brett kavanaugh. You write this, this is what trump told you. There were so many others i could have appointed and everyone wanted me to. Where would he be without me . I saved his life. He wouldnt even be in a law firm. Who would have had him, nobody. Why was kavanaugh, in the interview that trump gave you, the recipient of this level of wrath from the former president . Well, very simple, because Brett Kavanaugh, when it came to it, did not rule in favor of the president s bid to overturn the election. So its very simple. In Donald Trumps mind, he was owed by Brett Kavanaugh, owed for putting him on the court, and then owed for defending him when he was accused of all manner of sexual abuse. He stood by him, therefore it, in Donald Trumps mind, Brett Kavanaugh should have stood by him, and he absolutely is incapable of understanding how Brett Kavanaugh could not understand that. The book is entitled, let me put the cover back up on the screen landslide, the final days of the Trump Presidency the author, Michael Wolff, thanks for writing the book. Thanks for joining us today. I would like to continue these conversations down the road. Thanks.

Alinejad, a u. S. Citizen of iran origin is a journalist and human Rights Activist who is often critical of the Iranian Regime. Tonight, u. S. Law enforcement is accusing iran of a brazen plot to kidnap alinejad from the heart of New York city, and hustle her to iran where a u. S. Attorney says the victims fate would have been uncertain at best. Now, theyre trying to kidnap an american iranian citizen from New York to use me as a Bargaining Chip or i dont know, execute me. Reporter the details are right out of a James Bond or Jason Bourne movie. According to the fbi and prosecutors, Iranian Regime tried to get alinejads relatives in iran to lure her to a third country. The relatives didnt agree so an indictment says four members of an iranian intelligence hired private investigators to Surveil Alinejad at her brooklyn home which she says the fbi tipped her off to. They showed me the photos of my private life with my husband, my stepchildren, My Beautiful Garden in brooklyn, i was like, wow.

Then they researched how to take her by boat to venezuela which has friendly relations with iran.

For the first time in 13 years, Britney Spears is able to hire her own attorney and that person who is going to be taking over that job is matthew former federal prosecutor.

I want jody montgomery the conserve tore of her persons help to get back into the real world. Chloe, excellent report. Thank you very, very much. Lets get analysis from dave the State Attorney for palm beach county, florida. She wants her nearly 13year conserv conservatorship. Shes not been allowed to choose her own attorney. That changed today. How much of a difference could that make . Good evening, wolf. Makes a huge difference. Her father and legal team said Britney Spears never tried to end the conservatorship in 13 years and we wondered why until the hearing last month when she said she didnt know she was able to petition the court to end the conservatorship. Thats because she was never allowed to hire her own lawyers. There were two lawyers she wanted from the beginning, and instead of being allowed to hire them, the court said she has no legal capacity and instead, hired someone she never met, someone that only first met her two days after the conservatorship was granted and only talked to her for about 15 minutes. This is going to make all the difference in world. Its ironic, wolf, had she killed someone at the time, god forbid, she would have been entitled to choose a lawyer that shows you accused murderers have more rights to pick counsel than conserve tees. How do you see this whole evolving over the next weeks and months as this legal process continues . I think that her new lawyer is the right pick. I think that he will petition the court to end the conservatorship. Hes the right pick for a couple reasons. He has had high profile clients in the past like Steven Spielberg and Sean Penn. Keep in mind, this is bigger than Britney Spears herself. There are 1. 3 million americans subject to conservatorships around the country and maybe there will be a review around the gaps of the lawyer like Bit K britneys that are working to keep her in the conservatorship. The fact she could not pick her own lawyer until now. This is an area of the law that needs review and that will be the lasting legacy of this matter. What is so important is by doing all this, shes shedding light on what is obviously a huge, huge problem out there. Some of these details, i mean, new to be. I dont know if you pollfollowe that closely. Heartbreaking to hear what shes been going through. Thanks for joining us. To our viewers, thanks for watching. Im Wolf Blitzer in the situation room.
